Do you want to know how to represent yourself in divorce court or in a custody case/battle against a narcissist and actually win? In this episode, Rebecca Zung speaks with Tina Swithin, who founded One Mom’s Battle, and who did just that. Dr. Ramani, the foremost expert psychologist in narcissism also offers her wisdom in expertise on the mind of a narcissist during these court cases, sharing what causes narcissism and what makes narcissists tick. Tina’s blog caught the attention of Christie Brinkley when the press attention shed light on her well-known custody battle with a narcissist.  This is truly an inspirational David-slew-Goliath story. If you are dealing with a narcissist in court and don’t have the money to hire a lawyer, find out the exact steps Tina took when she decided to go pro se (also called pro per) in her case.  This is Part 2 of a 2 part episode and can also be viewed on YouTube:  Part 2 can be viewed here.

MORE ABOUT TINA SWITHIN

In 2009, One Mom’s Battle (OMB) began with one mother, Tina Swithin, navigating a high-conflict divorce in the California Family Court System while in pro per. When Tina named her blog, “One Mom’s Battle,” she truly felt alone and isolated in her journey. After going public with her story in 2011, Tina quickly realized that she was not alone, and that narcissistic abuse affects both men and women. Tina continues to champion children’s rights versus mother’s rights or father’s rights. Ultimately, Tina’s family court nightmare came to an end in 2014 when a Family Court commissioner labelled her ex-husband a “sociopath” and revoked his parenting time (and contact with the children). In 2019, Tina successfully terminated his parental rights which is very difficult to do in California. Tina has now dedicated her life to raising awareness on narcissistic personality disorder and its impact on victims and, on the family court system.
